This here was my little weekend project. I felt like doing another skull and then remembered an old pencil drawing I made in the last decade. I was considering simply using the old sketch and redoing the piece in Inkscape but then decided against this and instead made something entirely new. I didn’t draw a sketch or use other reference images and limited myself to using just the bezier tool and a hand-full of base gradients (see the color palette in the screenshot below). I think the candle turned out quite nice.
